FAYETTEVILLE \u2013\u00a0Arkansas men\u2019s basketball will return to Hot Springs for the Razorback Tip-Off Scrimmage on Oct. 12 (Sunday). The team will take the floor in Bank OZK Arena at 3 pm.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast year was a tremendous success for all involved,\u201d said head coach John Calipari. \u201cWe are excited to return and grateful to those in Hot Springs for making this possible. This is a great chance for people in that region to interact with this year\u2019s team. The returning players had a great experience last year, and we have a lot of new players on this team who will do the same this time. The trip will also be important to those new guys, so they too get to know a different part of Arkansas and to know the passion for the Razorbacks throughout the state, not just Northwest Arkansas.\u201d<\/p>\n
The day will consist of meet and greet opportunities, player introductions and a Red-White team scrimmage.<\/p>\n
\u201cHot Springs can\u2019t wait to welcome Coach Cal and the Razorbacks back to town for a second scrimmage at Bank OZK Arena,\u201d said Visit Hot Springs CEO Steve Arrison. \u201cWe expect an even bigger, more enthusiastic bunch of Hog callers this time. Last year\u2019s preview of the Hogs\u2019 team was a blast, and we know this time will be even better. Hot Springs is full of Razorback backers who are going to show Coach and the team that we are proud of their achievement in 2024-25 and support them as they soar to even greater heights this season. Wooo Pig!\u201d<\/p>\n
